https:// -- broken?

[I AM SWIM]

Sometimes on the URL bar, it says https:// with a lock. I know it's secure then, but other times
a red slash goes over the https://, and I imagine that there is some bug.

It happens randomly. Does anybody know why this is?

It does this to me on one of my sites even though the certificate is signed/verified by NS CA Authority. Certificates are tricky. As long as you trust the owner of the site, you're fine.

Also, be thankful the site is even offered in https. That's a step ahead of most.

When the lock is broken it means that other 'non-secure' elements are included with the page you are looking at.

This happens when there is a Youtube movie or an off-site image is included in one of the posts. It's not a bug and it does not mean the DMT-Nexus is broken, it's normal browser behavior when elements from several sites are included into one page and one is https and the other not.

It's also impossible to watch this site on non-https. As soon as you enter the normal http you are redirected to the secure variant.


Kind regards,

Ah okay, I see, well at least it's not a bug.

I see that you were recently attacked by DDoS.
I'm glad you've gotten out of that situated.

I have no idea why people would do such a
thing, especially to a community that spreads
nothing but good.

<pardon If I'm not making any sense..> Those Darn Zolpidem Tartrates make me type all funny.
Anyway, Take Care The Kind Traveler.
